Hi, readers.

How did you celebrate your Independence Day? I celebrated it by joining a

school parade. We had so much fun before and during the parade. Let me tell

you how it went.

In the beginning, we prepared our costumes. Every class had to choose one

student to dress as an Indonesian hero. I was chosen as the class representative.

I dressed as Cut Nyak Dien. Other students wore red and white clothes.

Question:

How did Monita celebrate the Independence Day?

She celebrated by ...

• joining a school parade

• by going on the mountain

• by wearing white and red clothes

• by singing a sad song

What is the English translation of "bermain"?

• to read

• to sleep

• to eat

• to play

After I dressed up, I went around the school with all the students. During

the parade, we sang the ‘Hari Merdeka’ song. There was a marching band

following us. Suddenly, it started to rain. We ran back to our classroom.

Finally, after the rain stopped, we gathered back at the schoolyard. The

headmaster announced the winner of the best costume. A student from the

other class won. He dressed up as Tuanku Imam Bonjol.

The school parade was fun and made us remember our national heroes. I

was so proud. I could not wait to join this again next year.

Questions.

Who won the best costume in the parade?

• Monita

• The Student who wore red and white clothes

• A student who dressed up as Cut Nyak Dien

• A student who dressed up as Tuanku Imam Bonjol
